Definitions
- the present invention relates to laser material processing, and more specifically to a method and a device for protecting a laser unit from dust or debris produced during laser processing of a target or substrate in a processing area.
- the present invention is especially useful in connection with an apparatus for laser engraving or marking. Therefore, the technical background of the invention, and objects and embodiments thereof, will be described with reference to such laser engraving apparatus. However, the invention may also be applicable in connection with equipment for any other type of laser material process- ing, such as other laser surface treatment, laser cutting and laser welding. Background Art
- a laser engraving apparatus comprises a laser unit and a target guiding device which is disposed below the laser unit and adapted to guide a target past the laser unit.
- the laser unit includes a laser head being adapted to generate laser radiation, and a control head being adapted to direct and focus the laser radiation on the target to be provided with laser engraved markings.
- the distance between the engraving stations must be so large that it is difficult to maintain a positional relation- ship between the markings on the opposite sides of the web.
- An object of the present invention is to eliminate, or at least alleviate, the drawbacks mentioned above and to provide an improved method and device for protecting a laser unit from dust during processing of a target or substrate m a processing area. More specifically, the invention aims at essentially eliminating ingress of dust into the laser unit while still allowing for high- precision laser processing of all kinds of targets.
- a further object of the invention is to provide for laser processing from either side, or both sides, of a target .
- any kind of feasible target can be processed, even targets that are small, light-weight and/or flexible.
- the method and device of the invention allows for laser processing from beneath a target, since the longitudinal gas flow m the first region can be adjusted to counteract the gravitational driving force of the dust produced on the target during processing.
- gas is simultaneously removed adjacent to the processing area and fed to the first region intermediate the processing area and the laser unit, thereby establishing the ambient pressure at the processing area and the gas flow directed towards the processing area.
- the longitudinal gas flow is accelerated towards the processing area, to further increase the ability of the gas flow to counteract the gravitational driving force of the dust.
- a housing is arranged lnter- mediate the laser unit and the processing area.
- a channel extends within the housing from a radiation inlet opening which is facing the laser unit, and a radiation outlet opening which is facing, and generally is located close to, the processing area. Gas is simultaneously fed to and removed from the channel at separated locations therein.
- the removal of gas is effected adjacent to the radiation outlet opening, since such removal will facilitate the control of the pressure at the radiation outlet opening. Furthermore, generated dust can be removed from the region around the radiation outlet opening. Thus, the target can be cleaned from dust while being processed.
- the longitudinal gas flow is established over essentially a full cross-section of the channel m the first region.
- this is achieved by feeding gas into the first region in at least one pair of opposite inlet gas flows, which cooperate to form the longitudinal gas flow directed towards the processing area.
- the opposite inlet gas flows together sweep a full cross-section of the channel in the first region.
- the opposite inlet gas flows are preferably directed essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal center line of the channel, so that they meet and together form the longitudinal gas flow over the whole cross-section of the channel.
- a peripheral gas flow is separately established along a channel periphery in the first region.
- this is achieved by directing one or more gas jets from the channel periphery onto the processing area.
- gas jets will counteract the formation of any wake regions close to the channel walls, particularly in any corners thereof. Additionally, such gas jets can assist in moving the generated dust from the target to the radiation outlet opening where it is efficiently removed.
- gas is removed in at least two diametrically opposite directions adjacent to the radiation outlet opening. This arrangement allows for sufficient control of the pressure at the processing area, as well as efficient removal of dust from the processing area.
- a pressure barrier is established in a second region in the channel, preferably intermediate the first region and the laser unit.
- the pressure barrier i.e. a region of higher pressure as seen from the processing area, will assist in preventing dust from reaching the laser unit .
- a lateral gas flow is established in a third region in the channel, preferably intermediate the first region and the laser unit.
- the lateral gas flow is established between opposite openings in a side wall portion of the channel, preferably in the form of a sheet of gas that sweeps a full cross-section of the channel in the lateral direction. Any dust passing the first region, and the second region if present, has been significantly decelerated and will be effectively removed by such a lateral gas flow.
- the lateral gas flow is established by balancing the associated gas feeding and removal rates, so that the lateral gas flow is prevented from interacting with, and potentially disturbing, the flow field in the first region.
- the channel has a non-circular cross-section, at least in the first region. This configuration will prevent any formation a swirling gas motion in the first region. Such a swirling gas motion, for example around the longitudinal axis of the channel, would exhibit a central low-pressure zone, in which dust could move towards the laser unit.
- the cross- section is polygonal.
- jet- generating openings are formed in a side wall portion of the channel, preferably at the corners. Each jet- generating opening has a shape and location to provide for a gas flow along a periphery portion of the channel towards the processing area.

- Fig. 1 shows part of a system for manufacture of marked tabs or opening rings to be included in ends for beverage cans (not shown) .
- a thin metal strip S is fed from a supply 1 to a laser unit 2 supported by a supporting member 3, and finally fed to a tab forming unit 4 which is of a type known per se and which forms tabs by punching and stamping the strip S (see for instance the pamphlet "This is PLM Fosie" issued by Applicant's company PLM Fosie AB in the mid nineties) .
- the strip S is guided by a guiding device 5 when passing the laser unit 2, and fed from the supply 1 by a feeding means (not shown) arranged in association with the tab forming unit 4.
- the laser unit 2 is of a high-power and high-speed type and is capable of providing engravings or markings in the surface of the strip S.
- This laser unit 2 comprises a laser head 2', which is adapted to generate laser radiation at a suitable wavelength, and a so-called scanner head 2", which is adapted to receive the laser radiation from the laser head 2' and focus and direct the generated radiation to a given location on the surface of the strip S.
- a laser processing area S' (Figs 2-4) is formed at the surface of the strip S.
- the strip S Since the tab surface available for the markings is very small, the laser radiation must be accurately posi- tioned on the strip S, and the strip S must be also be accurately positioned during the laser engraving operation.
- the strip S is made of aluminum with a thickness of about 0.24 mm and a width of about 67 mm. Such a strip S will flex even when relatively small forces are applied to its surface.
- the dust protection device 6 is in fluid communication with a unit 7 controlling and effecting simultaneous feeding and removal of air to and from the dust protection device 6, as will be further described below with reference to Figs 2-4.
- the air control unit 7 comprises a main control device 7A, such as a computer, an air pumping device 7', such as a fan or pump, an air sucking device 7'', such as a fan or pump, and a high-pressure device 7''', such as a compressor.
- the main control device 7A could also be connected to one or more pressure sensors, as will be further described below.
- the dust protection device 6 comprises a housing 8 having a flange 9 at a first end to be directly fastened to the scanner head 2" (indicated with ghost lines in Figs 2-4) , by means of bolts or the like (not shown) extending through holes (not shown) in the flange 9.
- a longitudinal channel 11 extends from a radiation inlet opening 12 at the first end to a radiation outlet opening 13 at an opposite second end. When installed, the radiation outlet opening 13 faces the processing area S', and radiation is transmitted through the channel 11 between the scanner head 2" and the surface of the strip S (indicated with ghost lines in Figs 2-4) .
- the housing 8 has an inspection window W to allow for inspection of the channel 11 during operation of the dust protection device 6.
- the second end may or may not be connected to the guiding device 5 (only shown in Fig. 1) .
- the distance from the radiation outlet opening 13 to the strip surface is generally less than one or two centimeters.
- two opposite air inlet openings or apertures 16, 17 are formed in a side wall portion of the channel 11.
- the channel 11 is delimited by four side walls and has a generally square or rectangular cross-section in the lateral direction.
- the air inlet openings 16, 17, which are mutually identical in shape and dimensions, extend across one respective side wall 14, 15 of the rectangular channel 11.
- the openings 16, 17 communicate with a respective air inlet chamber 18, 19, each having a spigot 20, 21 for connection to the air pumping device 7' by means of hoses HI or the like (Fig. 1) .
- two opposite air outlet openings or apertures 22, 23 are formed in the side walls 14, 15 adjacent to the radiation outlet opening 13.
- the air outlet openings 22, 23, which are mutually identical in shape and dimensions, extend across one respective side wall 14, 15 of the rectangular channel 11.
- the openings 22, 23 communicate with a respective air outlet chamber 24, 25, each having a spigot 26, 27 for connection to the air sucking device 7'' by means of hoses H2 or the like (Fig. 1) .
- the air pumping device 7' continuously and symmetrically feeds air to the air inlet openings 16, 17.
- two opposite symmetrical air flows laterally directed towards the center of the channel 11, as shown by arrows in Fig. 3, are set up through the air inlet openings 16, 17.
- air is symmetrically sucked in two opposite directions, as shown by arrows in Fig. 3, from the region close to the radiation outlet opening 13 through the two opposite air outlet openings 22, 23.
- the air sucking unit 7'' continuously sucks air through the air outlet openings 22, 23, thereby establishing a region R0, schematically indicated in fig. 4, of essentially ambient pressure.
- ambient pressure is established at the radiation outlet opening 13 and at the processing area S' .
- the channel walls 14, 15 in region Rl are inclined towards the center line L of the channel 11 so that the cross-section continuously decreases towards the radiation outlet opening 13. In this configuration, the longitudinal air flow is accelerated towards the radiation outlet opening 13 in region Rl . This has been found to improve the ability of the device 6 to protect the scanner head 2'' from dust produced at the processing area S' .
- the air outlet openings 22, 23 should be inclined towards the center line L, preferably at angle of about 30-60°, so that the openings 22, 23 to some extent face the radiation outlet opening 13. This has been found to enhance the ability to remove dust from the processing area, as well as the ability to establish an essentially uniform and ambient pressure in region R0 at the opening 13. To further promote the uniformity of the pressure distribution in region R0 , the total surface area of the openings 22, 23 should be about 2/3 of the surface area of the radiation outlet opening 13.
- a region R2 of stagnant air at a comparatively high pressure is established in the channel 11, immediately beneath region Rl .
- a pressure barrier is established in region R2 , i.e. a pressure gradient of increasing pressure towards the radiation inlet opening 12.
- This pressure barrier assists in preventing dust from reaching the scanner head 2" .
- wake regions can be formed, particularly in any corners of the channel 11. In such wake regions, or stagnant regions, dust might slide along the walls of the channel 11, thereby passing region Rl .
- a number of jet-generating passages 28, which open into the channel 11, are provided between the radiation inlet opening 12 and the air inlet openings 16, 17.
- the passages 28 are arranged to form jets J that are directed towards a central point P in the processing area S', i.e. on the strip surface, as indicated by single line arrows in Figs 3 and 4. More specifically, five passages 28 are formed at each lateral corner of the channel 11, as shown in Fig. 5.
- the twenty passages 28 communicate with a common ring-shaped chamber 29 which is connectable to the high-pressure device 7''' of the air control unit 7, for example by means of a hose H3 (Fig. 1) . Due to an inherent spread in the generated air jets J, a flow of air will be established along the channel walls. This peripheral flow of air will eliminate the above-mentioned wake regions.
- the jets J have the additional function of breaking away dust particles formed at the processing area S' during the engraving operation.
- the dust protection device comprises an auxiliary dust protection arrangement 30.
- This arrangement 30 sets up a lateral sheet of air across the full cross-section of the channel 11 in a region R3 (indicated in Fig. 4) intermediate the region R2 and the radiation inlet opening 12.
- This lateral sheet of air is arranged to capture and remove any dust that passes the regions Rl and R2 , for example heavy particles.
- two opposite openings or apertures 31, 32 are formed in a side wall portion of the channel 11. The openings 31, 32, extend across one respective side wall of the rectangular channel 11.
- the openings 31, 32 communicate with a respective air chamber 33, 34, each having a spigot 35, 36 for connection to the air control unit 7 by means of a respective hose HI', H2 ' or the like (Fig. 1).
- the opening 31 is connected to the pumping device 7' and has a delivery snout 31' extending into the channel 11.
- the opening 32 is connected to the air sucking device 7'' and has a reception snout 32' extending into the channel 11.
- the delivery snout 31' is designed to form the entering air into a lateral sheet, and the reception snout 32', being slightly larger in the longitudinal direction, is designed to receive essentially all air leaving the snout 31' .
- the air feed and removal rates through the openings 31, 32 are essentially balanced, so that the lateral air flow is established with minimum interaction with the other regions R0-R2 in the channel 11.
- the air pumping device 7' delivers air at a rate of approximately 10,000-30,000 1/min to the openings 16, 17, 31, equally distributed between the three.
- the high pressure device 7''' feeds air at a pressure of 0.15-0.4 MPa (1.5-4 bar) to the ring-shaped chamber 29, thereby equally distributing air to the jet- generating passages 28, each having a diameter of approximately 1.5 mm.
- the air sucking device 7'' is controlled by means of the main control device 7A to remove air from the openings 22, 23, 32.
- the air flows are controlled in such manner that essentially ambient pressure is established at the radiation outlet opening 13, and thereby also at the processing area S' on the strip S.
- this is done without feed-back control by simply balancing the air flows entering and leaving the housing 8.
- the removal of air is actively controlled by the control unit 7A based on the output of one or more pressure sensors (the sensors 37, 38 in Fig. 3), which are arranged in association with the channel 11.
- all air flows into and out of the housing 8 could be individually and actively controlled by the control device 7A.
- the amount of pressure deviation from ambient that can be tolerated at the opening 13 depends on the type of target. With the present target, the pressure at the radiation outlet opening 13 is preferably controlled within ⁇ 1 kPa ( ⁇ 10 mbar) of ambient, in order not to undesirably affect the position or shape of the strip S during the engraving operation.
- the dust protection device 6 includes a supplementary cleaning arrangement 40.
- the cleaning arrangement 40 is provided at the first end of the housing 8, i.e. facing the scanner head 2".
- the cleaning arrangement 40 comprises two lateral, hollow pipes 41, 42 which are connected to an exterior coupling 43 (Fig. 6) of the housing 8.
- the coupling 43 is in turn connected to the high pressure device 7''' by means of a hose H3 ' or the like (Fig. 1) .
- a hose H3 ' or the like Fig. 1
- Each row of holes 44 is offset with respect to the lateral direction, thereby being capable of directing air towards the radiation inlet opening 12, to remove any dust deposited on the scanner head 2" .
- the air control unit 7 is operated to intermittently feed air through the cleaning arrangement 40, so that air is emitted in short bursts from the rows of holes 44 (Fig. 5) .
- the cleaning arrangement 40 is advantageously used whenever dust might have been deposited on the scanner head 2" , for example when restarting the laser engraving apparatus after a shut-down or breakdown in production.
- the dust protection device 6 can be modified in numerous ways without departing from the scope defined in the appended claims. For example, any number of openings could be provided to generate the longitudinal air flow in region Rl and the lateral air flow in region R3. Also, further air outlet openings could be provided to improve the pressure control at the radiation outlet opening 13. Likewise, a different arrangement of the air openings might be used to achieve the desired flow distribution within the channel 11. The above also applies to the jet- generating openings 28.
- the air control unit 7 might include some kind of filter (not shown) to remove dust particles in the air flow from the dust protection device 6. Further, other gases than air might be used.
- the invention also relates to a method of protecting a laser unit 2 from dust during laser pro- cessing of a target, in this embodiment a strip S, in a processing area S' .
- this method comprises the steps of establishing an essentially ambient pressure at the processing area S', and establishing, in region Rl intermediate the processing area S' and the laser unit 2, a longitudinal gas flow which is directed towards the processing area S' .
- inventive device and method could be used in protecting other types of marking units for non-mechanical processing of targets.
